About this Event
You don’t need to be an artist! If you’re aged 14 to 17 years join artist Shavaurn Hanson and mental health professional Orion Read in painting a mural at the Melville City Hockey Club (LOT 2821 Williamson Road, Kardinya WA 6163).
So what’s happening?
Local Young people have worked with Shavaurn and Orion to design a mural design that de-stigmatises mental health conversations, educates on signs, symptoms, and healthy habits, and encourages the community to seek help.
You will be coming along to paint this mural. The painting is scheduled for 9.00am to 11.00am on Saturday 10 and Sunday 11 December 2022. See you then!
